if you go here http://www.kubuntu.org/ you will read Kubuntu, making your PC friendly and if you know what is ubuntu you should understand that ubuntu is NOT a distro for testing software it's linux made simple for end-user. you wanna support rekonq well make an icon that will install rekonq instead here we got the opposite. > I do not like the idea, of adding questions to the installer, in fact I > feel that it would be better to remove questions, ask less, assume more. > Whilst our technically savvy users may not appreciate this, think about the > broader audience. > > We're are trying to persuade Sally Smith, who bought her Laptop from a > local retail store, all fully loaded with all sorts of software.
